What a load of bogus, I said, the first I heard it.
The 2nd time I heard it, it fell right in place. Brilliant.
And by the 3rd time, I was in shock.
Could it really be that simple?
Then I realized, it is true, and untrue at the same time.
What does that make it?
The word true is defined as 'being in accordance with the actual state or conditions',
So technically, nothing is in accordance with the actual state, and everything is allowed.
I tried again to make sense of it.
Then it did make sense.
Anything written can be falsified, bent, changed, etc.
A word out of place and a statement is untrue.
This blog, the dictionary, science text books, journals, holy books are all scribed by humans.
And as I mentioned earlier, no two humans can think exactly alike in every way.
Example of what I mean:
The world we are thought to see is an untrue illusion.
That may seem lame, or over the top, but is the Earth our home?
Is it a piece of rock that coincidentally went through the right procedures to sustain life?
Is it God's work, that the universe was made in 7 days?
Or perhaps the Big Bang theory?
If I were to ask an environmentalist, the Earth would be our home.
If I asked a staunch atheist (what an oxymoron), the Earth would be a 1 in a million coincidence.
If I were to ask the pope, the Earth would be God's creation.
If I were to ask Steven Hawkins, he would tell me it's a formation from the big bang or something.
Each point of view is backed by countless pieces of evidence, or a strong unfaltering faith in that line of truth.
But that still leaves me puzzled. What is the Earth? It simply cannot be defined.
OK, something else this time. The TV this time.
Its an idiot box, a poison Godmachine, it's a weapon of the media, its an entertainment platform.
You can't say all of the above with strong conviction. Each definition of TV has contradictory evidence to the other.
Therefore,
NOTHING IS TRUE.
Since human beings so righteously grant ourselves freedom of speech, of thought and opinion, we are allowed to stretch the limits when defining something. Any definition or saying can be twisted to have meaning.
Therefore,
EVERYTHING IS PERMITTED.
Now do you see?
Do not absorb things so easily.
Even what I say in this blog is totally written by me.
Meaning this is my version of the truth.
My definition for each blog post title.
It's not true, just as the other definitions are not true.
But it is our right to define it in every way possible.
